"Last night anti-terror units rounded up a new terror cell, the Federal Prosecutor confirmed. In the course of some 40-odd house searches in sixteen towns, 12 suspects were arrested. 152 garage boxes were searched. Weapons or explosives were not found. The suspects would have been planning to execute an attack on Brussels' Rogier Square during the Red Devils' soccer match htis afternoon, VTM News learned [Red Devils = Rode Duivels, Belgium's national soccer team, currently participating in the European Soccer Championship].

In the course of this large anti-terror sweep police searched forty houses in sixteen communes: in Brussels, Sint-Jans-Molenbeek, Schaarbeek, Anderlecht, Koekelberg, Sint-Agatha-Berchem, Evere, Vorst, Watermaal-Bosvoorde, Ganshoren, Zaventem, Ninove, Wemmel, Fleurus, Tubize and Liège. Forty people were apprehended for interrogation. Of these, twelve were arrested. In the coming hours, the Federal Prosecutor will decide whether they will stay in jail or not.

The Federal Prosecutor stated "that immediate intervention was necessary", but declined to give further information."

The info is a bit confusing, since the article states boldly that the twelve planned a terror attack, which implies there's evidence, while later in the same article "the federal prosecutor will decide whether they will remain in custody or not".

Be all that as it may, the important info is "that immediate intervention was necessary".

No immediate interventions are necessary in Belgium's Armenian, Portuguese, Polish, Chinese or whatever communities. We got no problem with them. They contribute, they respect the law. You barely even hear them. They are a bonus to the country.

If an intervention involving FORTY house searches in MUSLIM communities in no less than SIXTEEN communes "is necessary"... there have been some SERIOUS hints. That's SERIOUS cause for concern.

I notice something else: houses were also searched in Ninove, Tubize, Fleurus, away from the big cities.
